The image above shows a member of the U.S. Navy troubleshooting a problem on an electric circuit board. Understanding the way circuits work is just one part of understanding electricity and electrical forces. In previous lessons you focused on electricity, electrical circuits, and resistance. This lesson will take a closer look at the role of electric potential energy.
